## §SELF — OIP protocol specification

**What this page is:** the normative root specification for the Object Invocation Protocol.

**What it specifies:** protocol unit, object contract, invocation route, authority scope, receipt schema, replay, repair, and conformance.

**Proof rule:** an action is not proven by intent, description, or a 200. It is proven by the ledger and the OIP receipt for the invocation.

C10 (Scale Invariance) recurs-with C11 (Networks)

Shared pattern: No characteristic scale; power-law degree distributions in networks are fractal structure in connectivity; the same mathematical form (P(x) ~ x^(-α)) describes both

Domain distance: Mathematics/Physics → Sociology/Computer science (medium-large)

Derivation independence: HIGH. Mandelbrot (mathematics, 1982) formalized fractals. Barabasi (physics, 1999) found scale-free networks via preferential attachment. Watts-Strogatz (sociology/applied math, 1998) found small-world structure. The power-law in network degree distribution IS a fractal in network space — same mathematics, different objects.

Convergence strength (1–10): 8

Note: The edge is almost definitional: a scale-free network is a fractal graph. But the independence lies in the derivations — fractals came from studying coastlines and noise; scale-free networks came from studying the web and social ties.
